As soon as the Qiang chaos broke out, Nan Liang immediately took care of himself. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Wei Shuo took the opportunity to lead the army out of Guangwu, crossed Binggou Avenue to the south, and went straight down to Lao Crow City.

Old Crow City is located thirty miles south-east of Lianchuan Fort.

In the second year of Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty, Zhao Chongguo, the former general of the Han Dynasty, was newly built after the Qiang Rebellion, also known as the Old Crow Fort, the Old Crow Station.

It is located in the lower reaches of Huangshui, the west mouth of Lao Ya Gorge, and has been a key place for traffic in the past dynasties.

Due to the shrinkage of the Southern Liang Turtle to Lianchuan Fort, the Western Qin reinforcements retreated to Baitujin, which made the originally tense war suddenly relaxed.

On this day, Wei Shuo handed over the military affairs to Wang Zhenwei as the acting agent, and he himself went to Lubanting with Cui Hong to play.

Luban Pavilion, according to legend, was built by Luban, and it is a local grand scene.

The pavilion is built on a huge stone pillar in the center of Huangshui, and from a distance, it looks like a painting boat floating on the Huangshui River, giving people endless reverie.

Standing on the edge of the Huangshui, Cui Hong pointed to the surging Huangshui in the distance, and said to Wei Shuo ambitiously.

"In the future, if there is enough manpower, the Hehuang Valley alone will be able to open up an additional million acres of farmland, which can almost feed hundreds of thousands of more people."

"It's easy to reclaim farmland, but it's not easy to protect the environment!"

With a long sigh, Wei Shuo shook his head and didn't agree with Cui Hong's proposal.

He thought that the development of the river valley was a certainty, but it was necessary to pay attention to environmental protection.

Even if the damage to nature caused by humans in the agricultural era is insignificant, overexploitation can lead to fishing exhaustion.

For example, the Kubuqi Desert, the Mu Us Desert, and the desertification of the Western Regions are all caused by improper development.

Therefore, when he was in Hexi, Wei Shuo repeatedly banned the reclamation of the Juyanze wetland, and also vigorously supported afforestation.

The purpose is to keep the beautiful scenery under your feet.

"There should be a long-term plan for the development of the Hehuang Valley, and there is no need to forcibly convert some suitable areas for the growth of forage into farmland."

"In the future, it is most appropriate to keep the number of local fields at about 800,000 mu, and any more will damage the local environment."

"When Longyou and Guanzhong are taken in the future, there will be more and more land suitable for cultivation, and the food pressure faced by Hexi will not be as great as before."

"Therefore, some places are better to keep them as pristine as possible."

"Every time I listen to the great capital's grand arguments, the ministers feel that you are the real holy lord and virtuous monarch, and everything you do and say is for the consideration of all the people in the future."

Cui Hong gave such a high evaluation, which made Wei Shuo blush.

In fact, he is also an ordinary person in modern times, and it is only because of his 'well-informed' that he stands out among the ancients.

Cough! coughed lightly to hide the embarrassment in his heart, and Wei Shuo continued to point out with Cui Hong.

"The Hehuang Valley will be the key to deterring Tuyuhun and controlling the snowy plateau in the future, and it must be controlled in hand."

"In order to achieve this strategic goal, it is necessary to revitalize the local economy as soon as possible, at least to achieve self-sufficiency."

"It would be better to have spare money to provide rations for the garrison, so that the whole intention can be realized."

"Well, there is still a long way to go, and my generation still needs to work hard."

The two were talking happily, and Wang Zhenwei suddenly sent someone to invite.

"Could it be that the bald and deer sent someone to ask for surrender?"

This is not Wei Shuo's whimsy, you must know that since the Qiang riots, Nanliang's rule has been shaky.

Now that the begging and blazing rock is standing still, under the internal troubles and the absence of external reinforcements, it is very likely that the bald and lily deer will not be able to hold on.

……

I have to say that Wei Shuo guessed very accurately, and it was really Nanliang who sent a peace envoy.

And this messenger is still an old acquaintance, that is, Yin Xun, the former head of the Yin family.

This person had conspired with Suo Chengming to connect with the major families, trying to destroy Wei Shuo by the hand of Lu Guang.

After Lu Guangzhan died, Yin Xun was afraid of retaliation, so he fled south with his family and defected to the bald Xianbei.

Standing in front of Wei Shuo, Yin Xun was nervous.

In any case, he would never have thought that Wei Shuo, who was not taken seriously by the family back then, is now different from what it used to be, and has become the protector of the capital of Hexi.

The thought of the family property that had come to naught made him hate and fear Wei Shuo.

However, it is obvious that Wei Shuo has long forgotten the Yin Xun, and now his body and mind are in the regain of the lost land, where can he take care of the Yin Xun who is not even an enemy.

After the humble greetings, Wei Shuo deliberately taught a lesson with a straight face.

"The bald deer is famous, and Shuo Lao has long wanted to get to know him."

"It's just that I didn't expect him to repeatedly refuse to give good intentions, and before that, he even colluded with Lingnan Zhuhu to assemble an army to commit my Hexi."

"Although he was repelled by luck in the end, his move is really hateful!"

"I didn't have time to deal with him before, and that's because Hexi was busy recuperating and pacifying the people."

"Right now, the protector of Pontus led tens of thousands of iron horsemen to the south, not only did he not offer gifts to make amends, but he actually dared to raise troops to resist."

"If I don't teach him a lesson, how will I press the kingdoms externally and the people internally?"

Obviously, Hexi coveted the Hehuang Valley, but in the mouth of Wei Shuo, the army went south to punish the bald Xianbei.

Listening to Wei Shuo's serious nonsense there, Yin Xun secretly discussed it in his heart.

"You're so thick-skinned! Although the bald Xianbei once went north to invade Hexi, how many years ago was that? ”

"Recently, it is clear that you first robbed Guangwu City, the old nest of the bald and humble, and now you are aggressive and want to annex the entire Nanliang."

However, no matter how big the truth is, it is not more than strength, and now Wei Shuo's fist is hard enough, and his words are naturally not refuted.

Moreover, the purpose of this trip is not to find someone to quarrel with, but to seek peace and survival.

Therefore, Yin Xun ignored Wei Shuo's accusations, and said deeply: "Dadu Protector, my king has offended a lot in the past, and this is all Nanliang's crime. ”

"During the Battle of Ranwuting, Dadu Hu defeated tens of thousands of coalition troops, and the king of my family fled in a hurry, and this lesson is enough."

"Now, the king sincerely attaches to it, and I ask most of you to accept it regardless of your past suspicions."

"Here is a letter from the king of my family, please take a look at it."

Saying that, Yin Xun presented a letter, and Cui Hong next to him took it, read it and said, "It is indeed a letter from King Nanliang." ”

"What does the letter say?"

Cui Hong glanced at Wei Shuo, and said expressionlessly: "The bald and lily Lugu expressed his willingness to pay tribute to Hexi, and even willing to send his son as a hostage. ”

"But what else could he ask for?"

Wei Shuo raised his eyebrows, and asked with a sneer on the corner of his mouth, "Request?" What are the requirements? ”

"He hoped that the Hexi Army would withdraw from Guangwu and that the two sides would return to the pre-war situation."

"Hehe, I sent an envoy and brought a letter, and I want Hexi to cede Guangwu? I just want to ask out loud: Why?! ”

Yin Xun next to him was not happy when he heard it, and hurriedly corrected him: "Dadu Hu, Guangwu is a bald and humble old land, this is not a cession, it is a return." ”

"Hmph, if it falls into the hands of Hexi, it is the territory of Hexi!"

"Hexi has always had the tradition of letting other countries cede land, but it has never been in the habit of giving up land to others."

"Therefore, when it comes to cutting the land, don't talk about it!"

"Also, just calling the minister Nagong wants me to let Nanliang go, you can't help but think too beautifully."

"Go back and tell your king, surrender obediently as soon as possible, otherwise he will break Lianchuan Fort one day, and you will die without a place to be buried."

Wei Shuo's tough attitude was beyond Yin Xun's expectations, and he cried and pleaded with Wei Shuo.

"Dadu Hu, Nan Liang is very sincere in asking for peace, why do you insist on refusing to accept it?"

"With Nanliang as the wings, the southwest frontier of Hexi will always be peaceful and tranquil."

"Hahaha, Hexi Anning should be guarded by the Hexi people themselves, and there is no need for outsiders to worry about it."

Seeing that he had never been able to convince Wei Shuo, Yin Xun gritted his teeth and suddenly threatened fiercely.

"Most of the protectors are stubborn and refuse to negotiate peace, aren't they afraid of Liang Qin's conspiracy?"

"Don't look at the current begging and blazing rocks and patrolling, but as long as my lord is ruthless, he will cede the land to Xiqin."

"With the greed of begging and returning home, he will definitely send troops to help with all his might."

This is not an empty word of intimidation, but has a certain factual basis.

If the two countries conspired to recapture Guangwu, cut off the retreat of the Hexi army, and then march at the same time, the Hexi army in Lao Crow City would inevitably fall into a heavy siege.

In the past, the reason why the beggar was standing still was because the investment was disproportionate to the return.

If it is really as Yin Xun said, all the south and east of Yunwu will be ceded to Western Qin, and Western Qin will inevitably come to the aid with all his might.

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the hall immediately became tense.

Wang Zhenxi, Wang Zhongde, Kang Long and other Hexi generals all glared at Yin Xun angrily, and it seemed that they wanted to pick his skin.

Seeing that Wei Shuo was silent, Yin Xun thought that he had said that he had a sore foot in Hexi, so he tried harder and harder to persuade him.

"Although the Hehuang Valley is fertile, the water is shallow and narrow, and the land is full of hulu, and it is not enough to strengthen the country, and abandoning it will not affect the overall situation."

"Instead of wasting money and food on this useless land, how about abandoning this chicken rib and marrying the joy of the country?"
